A baritone sax is the lowest

That is marvelous! I've always associated a saxophone with a sort of brassy, sharp-edged sound. I've never heard them sound so mellow and creamy -- almost like a combination of clarinet and french horn. Wonderful! (And I bet the guys got it in the first take, too!)

I can speak from experience of playing soprano that it doesn't require a lot of breath, making it easier to play longer, but the phrasing in the piece does leave room for breath

@Solar7cc

We had a small ensemble play this at my high school, a quintet. It was 1 bari sax, 1 tenor sax, 2 alto saxes, and 1 clarinet. They sounded absolutely amazing! They practiced before going to competition for several months, and all the work they put in seriously showed. Good job army band, it sounded awesome!

I have never heard saxophones sound this... dark and mellow and round... it is a good day today

Fuck the jazzy, sharp tone. I love this classical sound, its so sweet

Fugues are so cool!

cool, my sax quartet is playing this at school. im on alto for this piece. sadly, we dont have a soprano sax :( its just our best alto saxophonist playing in the altissimo range the entire time.

***** although they are in the same key, it would give improper voicing to the music and it wouldn't sound right. It's satb format, meaning we literally need soprano alto tenor and bass/Bari. Since we don't have a soprano at school, we use an alto in its higher register.

@katrinarose2210

8 жыл бұрын

+Shalya Madra no, because the tenor sax is 2 octaves below the soprano. even then, the tenor voice is important, and if we have tenor play soprano, we lose that middle voice. it's easier to have 2 altos and have the first alto play a bit up in the altissimo range than have such a lower sax play the soprano part. thats like asking a tenor vocalist to sing the soprano part, it just can't easily be done

I'm a jazz major in high school and I don't really like playing or listening to classical music. But this song is really cool and you guys played it so well. Excellent job gentlemen.

Truly an amazing quartet. Outstanding job, gentlemen.

Absolutely amazing! I first heard the Little Fugue performed by the Canadian Brass and you guys blew me away! The final chord is fantastic!

This is easily the best horn arrangement of Little Fugue on KZread. Awesome performance, in every sense of the word!

Simply amazing control, of breathing, technique, tone, rhythm, in fact everything. Just brilliant musicianship!

The saxophonist's tone is smooth, rich, and full!

Brilliant execution of a wonderful, challenging piece of pure perfection. Well done!

Never get tired of watching, every day

Such a beautiful song, and amazingly finished by our Army Field Band. I love it. Ill be using this Fugue as an auditioning piece. That's how much this has stuck with me and how amazing it sounds. I'm playing Tenor and pre-recording the other 3 pieces. I've gotten the Tenor part down well except for the trills, those are very tricky with G# and D# trills to me.
